Maia is a blue Shar-Pei and a fierce protector of her crew. This breed is especially prone to skin issues as well as knee problems. Maia has what are called "floating patellas" or "knee-luxation." She also gets hot spots every once in a while.
Think about how changing climates (ex: moving from low-humidity climate to high-humidity climate) will affect your pets. Maia lives in Indiana, where fleas, mosquitos and ticks are common. Your Pet's stress-levels and comfort should not be ignored during your transition.
